Birmingham is set to host Funk Fest 2016 with popular R&B groups

Guy. Silk. New Edition. SOS Band. This list reads like a who’s who of R & B groups of the ’80’s and ’90’s.

They’re all part of the rundown for Funk Fest Birmingham 2016 presented by Pepsi. It’ll be hosted at Legion Field Saturday, May 21. Gates open at 3 p.m. and the show begins at 5 p.m.

Previous tour stops included Atlanta, Georgia and Jacksonville, Florida. For ticket information and other tour dates, visit Funk Fest Birmingham 2016.
